<<The judge would enlighten them. The defense attorneys would as well. >>

And the jury would still think Clinton had lied, even to the Grand Jury. No one I have spoken with believes him when he says he didn't believe oral sex was sex. They don't believe him when he says that Monica's testimony was okay because the term "sex" hadn't been defined yet, so it could mean anything she wanted it to. They don't believe him when he says that "caused" means "forced", etc. It doesn't matter what the judge thinks (excluding summary judgement, of course), it matters what the people think. They think he lied. Since the basis for the GJ inquiry was the truthfulness of Clinton's testimony and obstruction of justice, lying to the GJ would be material, and would constitute perjury.
